The Greeks attack and Trojans are being driven back. Hector, as the commander must go out and lead a counter-attack.

Before leaving, he talks to his family, who waited for him at the gate of the city. His wife, Andromache, carrying their son, Astyanax, tries to convince him not to go.
Although he knows that Troy and the house of Priam are doomed to fall apart, and that his end will be to die in war or go into slavery in a foreign land, he can not refuse to fight. He explains everything to his family embraces his son and wife and prays to Zeus for their good faith, mostly for his son to become a more powerful leader than he could ever be.
